The Dawgs move to 10-3 on the season and sit first in the West division.

Logan Grant (Chestermere, Alta.) scored the first run of the game for the Dawgs in the top of the first with a single. He ended up going 2-for-6 and registering two RBIs.

Trent Lenihan (White Rock, B.C.) went 2-for-5 and knocked in two, while Connor Crowson (Okotoks, Alta.) went 3-for-5 and had two RBIs.

On the mound, Noah Geekie (Strathclair, Man.) went three innings and allowed three runs on five hits while striking out two.
